Cerro Largo beats Fénix 2-1 at Antonio Ubilla stadium in the fifth round of the Intermedio Tournament.
After seven winless matches, the "arachán" team got a victory in the first game with Ignacio Ordóñez as coach.
The "arachán" team shook up the match at 15' when a cross from Thiago Galletto found a header from Hugo Silveira that hit the crossbar, and Emiliano Villar took advantage of the rebound to score, but after an extensive VAR review, it was disallowed due to an offside position.
Before halftime, Mauro Brasil bulldozed his way into the box and scored with a header to make it 1-0 for Cerro Largo, who had been superior in the first 45 minutes.
In the second half, Cerro Largo scored their second goal through a nice finish from Brian González, who left goalkeeper Andrés Mehring behind and finished into an empty net to make it 2-0 for the "arachanes".
At 63', Agustín Ocampo crowned an impressive team play and shot with power to make it 2-1 for Fénix, and his 11th goal in the Uruguayan Championship.
Despite the visitor's push to equalize, Cerro Largo secured a crucial victory, their first in the Intermedio, and the first one for Ordóñez as coach.
